Former Ciincinnati Reds outfielder Jacob Hurtubise signed a minor league deal with the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. <\/p>\n
Hurtubise surprised a lot of people in 2025 when he and Blake Dunn made the Opening Day roster over Stuart Fairchild. However, he appeared in just 12 games for the Reds, going 1-12 in 15 plate appearances. <\/p>\n
The Reds ended up designating him for assignment and he was claimed by the Seattle Mariners. He also spent time with the Houston Astros organization.<\/p>\n
In 56 games in the minor leagues last season, Hurtubise slashed just .160\/.350\/.200. \t <\/p>\n
Hurtubise has a cool story and he is an easy player to root for. He is just the second graduate of West Point to play Major League Baseball. <\/p>\n
And you won’t believe this. He got his first hit in the big leagues on Armed Forces Day. <\/p>\n
\u201cYou can\u2019t write the script any better than that,” Hurtubise said<\/a>. \u201cSuper special, and I\u2019m glad I could represent the Army that way.\u201d<\/p>\n Hurtubise will look for a fresh start in Milwaukee. <\/p>\n Make sure you bookmark Cincinnati Reds Talk<\/a> for the latest news, exclusive interviews, and daily coverage of the Cincinnati Reds!<\/p>\n You May Also Like:<\/p>\n How Emilio Pag\u00e1n Played a Role in Pierce Johnson Joining Cincinnati Reds<\/a><\/p>\n Report: Reds Interested in Signing Familiar Face After Breakout 2025 Season<\/a><\/p>\n Hunter Greene Creates Unforgettable Moment for Reds Fan at Redsfest<\/a><\/p>\n Two More Cincinnati Reds Players Crack MLB Network\u2019s Top 100 Players List<\/a><\/p>\n Report: Multiple Teams Interested in Trading for Key Players on Reds Roster<\/a><\/p>\n Reds Star Elly De La Cruz Reveals Status for World Baseball Classic<\/a><\/p>\n Cincinnati Reds 2025 Draft Pick Opens Up on Tough Start to Professional Career<\/a><\/p>\n Why Elly De La Cruz Turned Down Reds Record Breaking Offer<\/a><\/p>\n Cincinnati Reds Announce 2025 Organization Award Winners<\/a><\/p>\n One-on-One With New Reds Outfielder Dane Myers<\/a><\/p>\n One-on-One With Cincinnati Reds Pitcher Rhett Lowder<\/a><\/p>\n How Draft Day Took an Unexpected Turn for New Reds Outfielder Dane Myers<\/a><\/p>\n Nick Krall Reveals Key Details About Cincinnati Reds\u2019 Bullpen Plans<\/a><\/p>\n Nick Krall Has Exciting Message for Reds Fans Following Trade<\/a><\/p>\n Cincinnati Reds Win Total Feels Lower Than Expected<\/a><\/p>\n Previewing Cincinnati Reds Catcher Position Ahead of 2026 Season<\/a><\/p>\n What the Reds\u2019 Gavin Lux Trade Really Means \u2014 and What Could Be Next<\/a><\/p>\n Cincinnati Reds Land Two Top-50 Prospects in 16-Player International Class<\/a><\/p>\n Cincinnati Reds Bring Back Veteran Pitcher on Minor League Deal<\/a><\/p>\n —–<\/p>\n Follow Cincinnati Reds on SI on Twitter\/X: @RedsTalkSI<\/a><\/p>\n Like Our Facebook Page<\/a><\/p>\n Subscribe and follow the ONLY Daily Reds Podcast<\/a><\/p>\n
